Singapore's Lunar New Year coin series began in 1981 with the Year of the Rooster, making this 1998 Tiger issue the sixth full cycle into the program. The Monetary Authority issued these in copper-nickel alongside a silver proof version, a two-tier release strategy that became standard practice for the series by the mid-1980s.
